You could have went with a lower ISO and and opened up the F stop to like F11 or so and probably gotten better results. The second one a slower shutter speed and closed down the aperture some and gotten a little for DOF. A good place to start on shutter speed is the shutter speed to match the len length. At 300MM try to keep it at 1/320 sec or so but at 50mm try to keep it around 1/60. This is a starting point to keep from getting motion blur. Of course it will need to be faster it the subject is in motion. Try the spot focus setting. Focus by holding down the button half way then reframe and shoot.</blockquote>
